The Cincinnati Sub-Zero Head Wrap offers an innovative, non-invasive method of controlling core body temperature by cooling/heating the major blood supply to and from the brain. The versatile design of the CSZ Head Wrap permits therapy in a wide variety of clinical situations. It provides whole body cooling for patients who require mild hypothermia and it will also help maintain normothermic conditions.

The Bair Hugger® therapy underbody blanket series provides an innovative way to prevent unintended hypothermia. The Model 545 has been specially designed for use in interventional cardiology and radiology suites. Models 555 and 550 provide full access to pediatric patients from neonates to large children.

The Schaerer 7100 Operating Table is specifically designed for maximum C-arm access. An offset telescopic column delivers an unobstructed imaging area of 74.8 inches by 14.45 inches. The Schaerer 7100 is ideal for disciplines where imaging access is paramount, including Thorax and Abdominal Surgery, Spinal Column Surgery, Cardiovascular Surgery and General Surgery.

TRUMPF has added two new offerings to its extensive Surgical Table line. The TITAN is a 1,000 -pound capacity, fully articulating, split leg, mobile universal table. Featuring a sliding top and 40-degree reverse Trandelenburg positioning, the modular TITAN meets the demands of a wide range of surgical disciplines and virtually eliminates the need for separate "traditional universal" and bariatric tables.

The AMI Sharps Safety Station needle counter box features three safety hinges that can be unhinged easily without breaking should the user wish to separate the boxes to use as a neutral zone. Auto-lock snaps easily close and reopen for recount if necessary, while overlapping walls keep sharps securely in the box.

The Pyxis ScrubStation&reg is an automated system that electronically secures, tracks and distributes "scrubs." This new version of the ScrubStation offers mobile alert capabilities to enable time-sensitive response by hospital support personnel. Issues such as stock-outs and return stations reaching full capacity will trigger an automated alert via e-mail, various paging systems or other mobile devices.

The StarClose Vascular Closure System is a new vessel closure device engineered to enable faster, safe and secure closure, and earlier patient mobilization after catheterization. StarClose introduces a tiny circumferential flexible clip onto the surface of the femoral artery, closing the artery securely in a matter of seconds following diagnostic catheterization procedures, such as those used to diagnose coronary artery disease.

The ULTRAPORT Luer-Activated, Needle-Free Stopcock is a unique IV administration product used to control flow in applications such as IV therapy, monitoring and anesthesia. The one-piece design of ULTRAPORT reduces contamination by eliminating the need for sterile caps and preventing back flow if ports are inadvertently left open.

InterMetro's computer-ready mobile workstations include Starsys cart body,
retractable keyboard tray, convenient mouse holder, 17-inch LCD monitor, specified
power solution, and integration of customer-furnished computer equipment. Features
include a large work area, automatic electronic locking system, and Sealed Lead
Acid (SLA) or Nickel Metal Hydride (NIMH) power solutions with a battery run time

The ultra-light Model 5125 portable stand-on scale features a compact design for convenient transporting. User friendly, the scale automatically turns on and zeros when the carrying handle is stepped on. It then returns to zero, ready to weigh the next patient. The digital LED display provides weight measurements in pounds and kilos and is easily read in any light or environment.

The AirMatt allows staff to laterally transfer patients on a comfortable cushion of air without lifting. With no weight limit, the system can be used throughout the hospital in any application where a patient needs to be moved from surface to surface. The entire system weighs only 18 pounds and fits conveniently into a small storage and carrying bag on wheels.

“We knew from the beginning we wanted to go with ceiling-mounted Booms,” explains R.N. Bev Small, describing the recently opened 11-story clinical building expansion at Children’s Hospital Boston (CHB). The surprise, however, for CHB came when representatives from TRUMPF Medical Systems began taking the planning committee’s questions and developing them into innovative solutions.
